De420,
As Sailor Steve said "It's there to check out your Pinup Girl"...Hopefully you have a few of Tikigods Pinups lying around for the Crew to enjoy......

Hehe yeah i too agree with Sailor Steve but there is a slight problem...im currently on a Type II boat and...well...there is no girl poster infront of the radio station, so....

PS: That reminds me - I would like to ask for some advices and tips for career mode -> Like i said im currently playing with a Type II U-boat ( im playing on 60% realism )((god's eye mode is enabled)...the problem is , i have a hard time tracking enemy ships ( i've made 4 patrols and only on 1 i have managed to sink something (1 small merchant ship ). I thought about hanging around enemy ports but that wasnt a good idea. So any help will be appreciated

hmmmm,
well, using a type II your attack choices are limited, but you do have some.

First, when you spot a ship, track which way it is heading and try to intercept it, that way when the ship crosses your bow, you will be right there, within range, ready to fire.

Second, you should try GWX, it gives you a more realistic bang for your buck (found in the SH3 mods workshop, it stickied) that is, if you haven't.

but I forgot to add, when you spot that ship and laid out an intercept course, go to ahead flank, nothing wrong with getting there early

I would make 2-3 marks of the ship's location, to get an idea of which way it is headed, then, I would use the compass tool to draw a line through them to get an idea of where I am supposed to be when the ship reaches my location. of course, I go the extra distance and lay out the ruler to figure out the range to the target from my position.
it's worked very well for me, but I use a type VII, and have a lot more hitting power (I.E. a deck gun, a stern tube, and an extra bow tube)
